after months being off the road, i finally got it towed to a garage and basically the head is wrecked, guy told me to try and source a head rather than try and repair it, one of the guys off here has one sittin but i dont know how much they are worth and i dont think he does either, anyone shed any light on it?

also, does anyone know any decent/reasonably cheap couriers who would collect something like this for me? how is it best packaged etc?

any help appreciated, cant wait to get it back on the road ive missed rivin it so much :(

cheers

Used parcelfusion for sending a turini wheel and tyre to someone. 9.95 for next day up to 25kg.

As for heads, one is on ebay at the moment with 4 bent valves.

my cambelt snapped at 20mph

hes quoted me 400-500 to strip the old head out and put the other one in, is this reasonable?

also, is there anything on the goosed head that could be kept like the cams etc? i read that they are very rare

cheers
